At Strayer, we work hard to create affordable education built for real people in the real world. You’ll find plenty of ways to help make your tuition more affordable, so you can worry less about your budget and start building your future. Here’s a rundown of our scholarships and funds:
Graduation Fund
Bachelor’s and Master’s
Strayer can help you pay for your bachelor’s or master’s
degree. For every three courses you successfully complete, you’ll earn
one on us, tuition-free, to be redeemed at the end of your
program. Eligible bachelor’s and master’s students are automatically
enrolled in the Graduation Fund starting with the first course.
Strayer referral scholarship
Bachelor’s
Know a Strayer student or graduate? Ask them about a referral
scholarship. If you register for an eligible Strayer program, meet all
the eligibility requirements and maintain good academic standing, a
referral can save you $500 on tuition.
Bachelor's Transfer Tuition Cap
Bachelor’s
If you’re a new transfer student
with 30 or more quarter credits to transfer or an associate’s
graduate, you may be able to finish your bachelor’s degree for

program, maintain a GPA of 2.0 or greater and meet eligibility requirements.
Alumni Scholarship

pursue a master’s degree, our Alumni Scholarship can save you $4,000.
